The method we suggest reduces the need for extensive labor and eliminates the use of harsh chemicals. This technique has been improved with guidance from Caroline Murphy and Christina Trunzo from Great Green Cleaning, who have a total of 60 years of experience in kitchen cleaning, and with insights from Amelia Hensley, a mechanical engineer and cleaning specialist at GE Appliances.
Trunzo explained that what makes cleaning an oven challenging is not just the occasional spill, but also the fats that become airborne during cooking, coating every surface. To prevent a build-up, consider wiping your oven with soapy water after each use, which may reduce the need for strenuous scrubbing.
